Suggested grind size

When brewing coffee, grind size determines both how quickly water can flow through your coffee slurry and how much surface area of the ground coffee is exposed. The following list will give you suggested starting points for some of our favorite grinders on the market. 

Each grinder will vary slightly in calibration from another grinder of the same make and model. You can use our guide on dialing in your grind to refine your settings once you have brewed once or twice at the recommended settings. 

We encourage the user to keep an eye on the first brew with a new brewer or grinder to ensure that the grind settings are not too fine, to prevent spillage or overflow.
